How much data usage initially comes with this Pre-Paid Novatel Verizon Jetpack Mifi?

None. You have to purchase a data plan. $15 for 250 MB, $60 for 30 GB, and $90 for 10 GB

Hello,I actually sent mine back and just went to Verizon and bought one. I never even opened this one. The one I bought from verizon was a MiFi and I Love it . We connect up to 5 laptops and the speed is fine. We have a plan with verizon and pay $10.00 a month for it. I believe we have a 3 gb plan

No data usage comes with it. You have to buy 3 GB for $60 or 10GB for $90. I must confess, it doesn't last at all if you are a movie watcher or if you download once in a while. A week max. It's not really economical. My opinion though.

I use the phone on prepaid verizon for 35 a month as I just dont need web on my phone. This provides limited data access that I use in emergencies at no cost. This is not a phone for using web apps. It is a basic phone for calls and texting.

I believe I've read that the 3G comes with 2 years of free Verizon with a 100MB/month limit before additional charges. Other than a little lite text-only email it seems like it would be pretty easy to blow thru that limit. Suggestions I've seen is to get the wifi model and tether it to a smart phone. Don't know about upgrades but I doubt it.

It isn't a prepaid. I was given a phone number for the MiFi from AT&T; and a monthly bill. I loved the ability to get on the internet anywhere. The bill ran me $36.00 per month for 3Gb

The phone that I purchased does not come with a pre-paid Net 10 card. That card I purchased separately. But that aside, I like the Net 10 service as unused minutes DO carry over to the next month. RIG

The data is unlimited, but after a certain data threshold the speed goes down from 4G to 2G. The threshold goes up with more expensive monthly plans as follows:$39 500MB$49 2GB$69 4GB

These sim cards arent active. Once you receive them you have to add money and call the company to activate them. Im currently using the $25 plan. Unlimited calls and sms/mms. If you want to use the web I believe its starts at $40 for everything.

I activated this phone with Verizon who I believe now offers Pre-paid plans.

This particular device is AT&T; locked. I've heard that you can ask AT&T; for the unlock code after 2 months of subscription (Even the goPhone plan works for this purpose). The Novatel MiFi is capable of servicing 5 Wifi-capable devices (e.g. smartphones and computers). However, for home use that is going to be a bit slow since it provides internet connection over the cellular network.

Yes! And it's a sticky way to use the Pre-paid process. Verizon want you to take on a $50.00/month usage plan, but after 6 months, you can have them change it to your current Verizon plan.

The 100mb is the $19.00 plan The &29.00 plan have 1gb after data stops The other plans the speed drops for the rest of the month

As I recall, its only 3g unless attched to another source for 4g support, so this could cost money. I think, beyond buying it, your other cost will be how much data you choose to use. I did get Verizon to come out and check my existing signal after a year.

The device does NOT come with pre-paid service. You'll still need to arrange for that. I know it will run on the Verizon system. Don't know about any others. I use a $50/month plan that provides enough for general work. Something like 5 Gbytes. I rarely go over 1 Gbyte or 2. But, I save watching videos and listening to streaming radio until I'm on unlimited internet access at home.

You must turn off the data on your cell. If you use connect to internet, carrier dosent know if using wifi or 3g. You will be charged per mb.

The unit has a SIM card slot and it is locked to a Verizon service or a Verizon reseller. More information is at http://www.zteusa.com/verizon-jetpacktm-890l.html

Is Verizon "unlimited" prepaid service for this device really "unlimited" or does it slow down after a few gigs?

May I suggest that you access the Verizon.com web site ( if you are in the USA )and get that information since I do not know your anticipated usage and other items with that carrier.If you are outside of the USA I really could not even suggest where to look.Good luck
